We're always excited when the weekend rolls around and we finally get a break. Then we wake up on Saturday, watch some television, and realize we have absolutely nothing to do. Rather than sit on your butt all weekend, here are a few ways to make things more interesting.

Find Some Fun

The weekends were designed for fun. At least, they were for those of us with 9-to-5-ish weekday jobs. If you don't feel like doing the standard activities, such as going to dinner and a movie, watching television, or sleeping all day long, there are plenty of resources on the internet to help you find something new and exciting.

Turn Boredom Into Relaxation

Boredom is just what happens when you have nothing to do and you let that actually bother you. If you don't care, you can pretty much label your boredom as relaxation. Aside from just having a new mindset there are, actually, a few ways to help yourself relax on the weekend.

You might want to start by putting the technology away as you probably get enough of it during the week. Once you do, you can think about activities (or lack thereof). Getting the obvious options out of the way, we've got guide to help you learn to meditate and practice yoga. If you're having trouble sleeping, the weekend is always a good time to reboot your sleep cycle. If you can't find anything appealing, don't feel bad about doing nothing. Sometimes all you need to do is convince yourself that you're not bored but just need a nice, two-day break.
